Sukta 24
यस्य॒ जुष्टिं॑ सो॒मिनः॑ का॒मय॑न्ते॒ यं हव॑न्त॒ इषु॑मन्तं॒ गवि॑ष्टौ । यस्मि॑न्न॒र्कः शि॑श्रि॒ये यस्मि॒न्नोजः॒ स नो॑ मुञ्च॒त्वंह॑सः
yásya júṣṭiṁ somínaḥ kāmáyante yáṁ havante iṣúmantaṁ gaviṣṭáu | yásminn arkáḥ śiśríye yásminn ójaḥ sá no muñcatv áṁhasaḥ
Whose gracious favour the Soma-offerers crave; whom, arrow-armed, they call upon in cattle-quest; in whom the hymn is firmly set, in whom is strength—may he release us from distress and sin.
Aquele cujo favor os ofertantes de Soma desejam; a quem, armado de flechas, invocam na busca do gado; em quem o hino está firmemente assentado, em quem há força — que ele nos liberte da aflição e do pecado.
